Received three quotes for a clutch replacement . I chose Duffy's because of the reviews, he wasn't the cheapest, but thought the others seemed a bit too cheap . I was quoted £420, but when Jack removed the clutch he discovered the flywheel was on its limits, so I told him to replace it . He collected the car when he said and returned it on time . I am very pleased with his work and will certainly recommend him to anybody.

Competitively priced, great customer service and genuine/honest garage. Managed to squeeze in MOT, the additional work once failed, and a second MOT on top of the work I originally needed - all same day. Even drove me to the metro centre when the extra work needed doing. Cheers Davie.

Alan here from ATP Auto Services. I am a mobile mechanic based in Stanley offering all forms of mechanical repairs, maintenance work and servicing. Being mobile, I come to your location of choice to carry out all works at a time and location to suit you, which means you don’t have to worry about being left stranded or trying to arrange alternative transport for the day. I do also have a small workshop which means I can also undertake larger jobs and work indoors when the weather is not on our side.

I am a Honda master tech, having worked at a Honda main dealer garage for 22 years, however, I have been self-employed since 2015, when I established this company, and I carry out work on all makes and models of cars and vans. To ensure your vehicle remains in top condition always, I use good quality O.E. specification parts and I also provide a labour guarantee to match that of your manufacturer parts one for your peace of mind.

I can provide you with a courtesy car (subject to availability), or the use of my waiting room complete with Wi-Fi, refreshments and a TV for your comfort.

How much do Brake Pads and Discs cost to repair in Consett?

Brake Pad and Disc replacement prices will vary depending on make and model, part quality and which components are being replaced. Our overall average repair price is around £170 in Consett.

+

What is a Brake Pad?

Your car's Brake Pad works in the same way as the rubber brake blocks on a bicycle. When your car's wheels turn, a brake disc (or sometimes drum) turns with them. When you press the brake, you are pushing your car's brake pads against the discs, causing friction, and slowing the car.

+

What is a Brake Disc?

Your brake disc performs the same job, in principle, as the metal rim of a bicycle wheel under braking. When you brake, you push your brake pads against brake discs, which spin with your wheels. The friction on between the pads and discs slows the car.

+

What is the difference between Disc Brakes and Drum Brakes?

Brake discs and Brake drums perform exactly the same job: they spin with your car's wheels and, when you brake, your brake pads push against the brake discs or brake drums to slow the car. The difference is simply in the design. Drum brakes are an enclosed braking system in which brake pads (or shoes) push outwards on the inside of the drum. Disc brakes are exposed, with the pads pushing inwards against the disc.

Can I get Consett Brake Pad and Disc repairs at my home or work?

Yes. Many of our Consett garages are happy to come to your home or office to repair your car. Alternatively they may offer to collect your car, at little or no extra cost, across Consett.

Car Brake Repair

Your brakes are extremely important to the safe operation of your vehicle. The job of your brakes is to bring your car to a stop as quickly as possible and if they are not working correctly, the stopping distance will increase and the likeliness of a collision will increase.

How do Brakes work?

Brakes are made up of many different components and repairs could be needed on any one of them. Brakes consist of Brake Calipers, Brake Discs, Brake Pads, Brake Fluid and the Handbrake. The brake calipers squeeze the brake pads against the disc, this creates friction that prevents the disc from spinning and thus the wheels stop moving. New brakes cost different amounts depending on your car, manfacturers will recommend different parts for different cars. Depending on your vehicle, different components will be used. For example, larger vehicles will use discs with ventilation as there is a greater build up of heat when stopping a larger vehicle. Because of this costs will vary from vehicle to vehicle.

The brakes on the front of the car usually contribute the most to bringing a car to a stop as the weight of the car is thrown forward each time the vehicle stops.

Different vehicle have different brake systems and use slightly different parts.

The common hydraulic system uses fluid to apply pressure to pistons in the car close to its wheels to bring the car to a halt.

Some cars also have power brake assistance which helps to reduce the amount of effort required to apply stopping power.

If you need to have your brakes repaired there are several issues that could have caused the problem and several things that could be affected.

If you suspect you need your brakes repaired but your car is still drivable, there are some symptoms which could give you clues as to what the problem is.

The brakes are often the noisiest part of a car if there is an issue which means you should be able to hear a problem which cannot be said of many other broken car parts.

Brake Repair Cost

A brake change can vary in cost depending on what exactly you are having done but the average price is around £180. A brake pad replacement will cost less than replacing brake pads and discs. This is because the cost of brake pads is less than the cost to replace brake pads and brake discs. Brake discs replacement is more expensive because the brake discs cost more than brake pads and usually brake pads are changed at the same time brake discs are changed.

New brake pads can vary in price depending on the brand used, so make sure you ask your mechanic what brand of parts they are using. Remember, cheapest is often not the best!

A brake service is offered by some garages and often comprises of a quick check of all the components involved with powering your brakes before concluding whether or not replacing brake pads, brake discs or both is the best course of action. Often a brake service will cost you nothing but can cost a small amount for the garages time. But if the garage finds a problem, they will often waive the brake service cost if you have the worked completed with them. The brake repair cost is what makes it worthwhile the garage waiving the fee for the brake service.
